First Vette dream come true
Hello all! Introducing myself as I will be picking up my first Corvette, a '19 Stingray this week. About to turn 50 so this has been a long journey for me! Wife finally gave way..our 3 "boys" are older- 2 out of the house plus a 17 year old so it was time! Heard this was the best Corvette forum on earth so here I am- thanks for having me
